Chapter 6 Configuration

Daemon is installed, it is possible to use the standard port 80 — then it will be no
longer necessary to specify the port in the browser, when connecting to the WWW
interface of Kerio NetworkMonitor.
Accept ’X-Forwarded-for’ tag... This option enables the Kerio Network Monitor to get
the IP addresses of the client computers from the X-Forwarded-for tag in the HTTP
request, which was accepted by the embedded WWW server from the proxy server.
Set this option in case that local computers use a proxy server for the Internet ac-
cess. In this configuration Kerio Network Monitor “sees” only the requests from the
proxy server. In the X-Forwarded-for tag (which is added by the proxy server), it is
possible to find the IP address of the client — the real originator of the HTTP request.
Enter the IP address of the proxy server, which should Kerio Network Monitor accept
the X-Forwarded-for tag from (it can not be accepted from any proxy server, be-
cause this feature could be misused by the clients easily) to the appropriate field.
If the proxy server is running on the same computer as the Kerio Network Monitor
Daemon , use the loopback address 127.0.0.1.
The above described problem can be solved by setting the WWW browser so that
it does not use the proxy server for local address (but this option can usually be
changed by the users).
The following options define the behavior of the WWW interface if it is opened by the
anonymous user (i.e. is not logged in with the user name and the password — see
chapter 8.1 ).
The default setting supposes that each user can view only information about his own
computer (that, which is he connected to the WWW interface from). If the user has
appropriate access rights to Kerio Network Monitor (i.e. has created the user account —
see chapter 6.3 ), he can log in and see all the information, which Kerio Network Monitor
offers.
Show ’All computers’ item The option All computers will be shown in the list of the
computers (i.e. show the statistics for all of the computers, logged by Kerio Network
Monitor ).
Groups visible Option determining, which groups can be seen by anonymous users (No
groups visible — no groups, Groups I’m in — only the group, which the computer, that
is connected to the interface, belongs to or All groups — all groups).
Computers visible This option determines, which computers can be seen (No comput-
ers — no computers, Only my computer — only the computer, which he is connected
from or All computers—all computers).
